[0039] In related technologies, the wheelset drive system serves as the power output unit of the traction locomotive. It converts electrical energy into mechanical energy through the traction motor, and transmits the output torque of the traction motor to the wheelset through the transmission gearbox system. The wheelset then generates wheel-rail adhesion by contacting the rails to achieve the traction or braking force of the locomotive. Therefore, the output torque power of the wheelset drive system determines its working capacity.

[0040] The existing wheel set drive system mainly includes a traction motor and a gearbox. The motor has a housing, and the housing includes an end cover, through which the motor and the gearbox are rigidly connected. The existing wheel set drive system is limited by the track system, and the installation space provided for its internal structure is also limited. The motor and gearbox with large traction and torque are often large in size, which results in the inability to provide a motor and gearbox that meet the large traction requirements within the limited installation space, resulting in limited system functions.

[0041] Based on this, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a wheel set drive system, such as Figure 2 As shown, combined Figure 1The system includes: an axle 40, a motor 10, a gear box 20 and a first connecting component 701.

[0042] Wherein, wheels 50 are respectively arranged on both sides of the wheel axle 40; the motor 10 has a housing 102 and a motor shaft 101 arranged in the housing 102, the housing 102 includes a first end surface, an opening is opened on the first end surface, and the motor shaft 101 is passed through the opening; the gear box 20 has a box body 201 and a gear shaft 202 arranged in the box body 201, the box body 201 includes a second end surface, the second end surface abuts against the first end surface, one end of the gear shaft 202 extends to the opening, and the gear shaft 202 is butted against the motor shaft 101;

[0043] The first connection component 701 includes:

[0044] A first connecting member 711 connects the housing 102 and the box body 201, and the first connecting member 711 is disposed at a first position, which is a position close to both the edge of the first end face and the edge of the second end face. The first connecting member 711 is used to constrain the motor 10 and the gear box 20 in a first direction, and the first direction is a direction perpendicular to the axis of the wheel axle 40;

[0045] A second connecting member 712 connects the housing 102 and the box body 201, and the second connecting member 712 is disposed at a second position, which is a position between the first position and the motor shaft 101 in the first direction, and the second connecting member 712 is used to constrain the motor 10 and the gear box 20 in the second direction, which is the circumferential direction of the wheel axle 40;

[0046] The third connecting member 713 connects the outer shell 102 and the box body 201, and the third connecting member 713 is set at a third position, which is a position away from the first position in the first direction and close to the edge of the first end face and the edge of the second end face. The third connecting member 713 is used to constrain the relative displacement between the motor 10 and the gear box 20.

[0047] The wheelset drive system provided by the present invention directly connects the first end face of the motor 10 with the second end face of the gear box 20, and one end of the gear shaft 202 extends into the opening, the gear shaft 202 is docked with the motor shaft 101, and the motor 10 housing 102 is connected to the housing 201 of the gear box 20 through the first connecting component 701. The housing 102 of the motor 10 is connected to the housing 201 of the gear box 20, and there is no need to use other components to achieve the connection between the housing 201 of the gear box 20 and the housing 102 of the motor 10. While ensuring the connection strength of the system, the function of the gear box 20 is integrated, the axial space of the system is saved, the compactness of the system structure is improved, and the subsequent functional requirements of high power and high torque of the system can be met.

[0048] The various parts of the wheelset drive system provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0049] In the embodiments provided in the present disclosure, Figure 1 As shown, the system includes an axle 40, and wheels 50 are respectively arranged on both sides of the axle 40, wherein the diameter of the wheel 50 can be between 1370 mm (millimeter) and 2000 mm. According to different locomotive types, different values ​​can be selected for the diameter of the wheel 50. For example, the diameter of the wheel 50 of an electric locomotive can be 1250 mm. The wheelset drive system of the following embodiment of the present disclosure is described by taking the application to an electric locomotive as an example. The parameters such as the length of the axle 40 and the size of the wheel 50 in the electric locomotive can adopt the parameters commonly used in the art, which will not be listed one by one here, but adaptive adjustment or deformation can be performed for different types of locomotives.

[0050] Among them, Figure 1 As shown, the system includes a motor 10, and the motor 10 can provide traction or braking force for the system. The performance parameters such as the power of the motor 10 can be set according to the parameters such as the size of the motor 10. For example, the larger the size of the motor 10, the larger the maximum power that the motor 10 can provide. In the present disclosure, the motor 10 has a housing 102 and a motor shaft 101 disposed in the housing 102, wherein the housing 102 includes a first end face, and the first end face has an opening, and the motor shaft 101 is inserted into the opening.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the system includes a gearbox 20, which includes a housing 201 and a gear shaft 202. The housing 201 includes a second end face, which is in contact with the first end face. One end of the gear shaft 202 extends to the opening, and the gear shaft 202 is in contact with the motor shaft 101. A driving gear is installed on the circumferential position of the gear shaft 202. In addition, the wheel shaft 40 is also inserted into the housing 201 of the gearbox 20, and the axial extension direction of the wheel shaft 40 is parallel to the axial extension direction of the gear shaft 202. A driven gear is installed on the circumferential position of the wheel shaft 40, and the driving gear and the driven gear are meshed. In the present disclosure, the gear shaft 202 is driven to rotate by the motor shaft 101, so that the driving gear drives the driven gear to rotate in meshing, so as to drive the wheel shaft 40 to rotate through the driven gear, so as to provide traction for the system.

[0052] Among them, the driving gear and the driven gear can be one of cylindrical spur gears or cylindrical helical gears, which can be selected according to the specific design requirements of the system structure.

[0053] In one embodiment provided by the present disclosure, Figure 3As shown, the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202 can be connected by an elastic connector 60, wherein the elastic connector 60 is disposed between the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202, and the elastic connector 60 can be an elastic ring, a plum blossom-shaped elastic coupling, a serpentine spring coupling, etc. Connecting the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202 by the elastic connector 60 can increase the connection strength of the two and provide connection reliability, and can also reduce the wear of the connection between the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202 and increase the service life of the two.

[0054] In another embodiment provided by the present disclosure, the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202 can be connected through the ends. For example, during the manufacturing process, a conical connector can be formed at the end of the motor shaft 101, and a conical hole can be formed at the end of the gear shaft 202. The connection between the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202 can be achieved by interference fit between the conical connector and the conical hole. Of course, a conical hole can also be formed at the end of the motor shaft 101, and a conical connector can be formed at the end of the gear shaft 202; the connection between the two is not limited to a conical connection, and other types of connection methods can be selected according to actual design requirements to meet design requirements.

[0055] In this system, the connection between the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202 can be achieved, but since the motor shaft 101 and the gear shaft 202 are the main working parts of the system, which are the parts providing traction or braking force, the connection between the two alone is not enough to provide sufficient connecting force for the motor 10 and the gear box 20.

[0056] In the present disclosure, since the housing 102 of the motor 10 does not include an end cover, the housing 201 of the gear box 20 is used as the end cover of the motor 10, and the housing 201 of the gear box 20 is directly integrated with the housing 102 of the motor 10. However, the existing gear box 20 does not have a structure directly integrated with the housing 102 of the motor 10. In order to ensure the connection strength between the motor 10 and the gear box 20, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, combined Figure 1 The system provided by the present disclosure further includes a first connecting component 701 , which is used to connect the housing 102 of the motor 10 and the housing 201 of the gear box 20 .

[0057] Among them, Figure 2As shown, the first connecting component 701 includes a first connecting member 711, which connects the shell 102 and the box body 201, and the first connecting member 711 is set at a first position, which is a position close to the edge of the first end face and the edge of the second end face at the same time. The first connecting member 711 is used to constrain the motor 10 and the gear box 20 in a first direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the axle 40.

[0058] The first connector 711 may include a first inner stop and a first outer stop, wherein the first outer stop may be set at a first position corresponding to the first end face of the motor 10 housing 102, and the first inner stop may be set at a first position corresponding to the second end face of the gearbox 20 housing 201. Through the cooperation between the first inner stop and the first outer stop, radial constraints on the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 may be achieved, that is, the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 are constrained in the first direction to avoid the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 from being separated from each other in the first direction during operation, thereby protecting the system components from damage. Of course, the setting positions of the first inner stop and the first outer stop may be interchangeable, and may be set according to the specific structures of the motor 10 housing 102 and the gearbox 20 housing 201.

[0059] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the first connecting component 701 includes a second connecting member 712, which connects the housing 102 and the box body 201, and the second connecting member 712 is arranged at a second position, which is a position between the first position and the motor shaft 101 in the first direction, and the second connecting member 712 is used to constrain the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 in the second direction, which is the circumferential direction of the axle 40.

[0060] The second connecting member 712 may include a first sub-positioning key and two first sub-positioning grooves, wherein one first sub-positioning groove may be provided on the first end face of the housing 102 of the motor 10, and the other first sub-positioning groove may be provided on the second end face of the housing 201 of the gearbox 20, the positions of the two first sub-positioning grooves correspond to each other, and the two first sub-positioning grooves form an integral sub-positioning groove, and the first sub-positioning member may be inserted into the sub-positioning groove to constrain the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 in the second direction. The first sub-positioning groove and the first sub-positioning key may be rectangular, and the matching relationship between the rectangular positioning groove and the positioning key is used to limit the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 from relative circular motion, thereby ensuring the fixed connection relationship between the motor 10 and the gearbox 20.

[0061] The second connecting member 712 is arranged closer to the wheel axle 40 than the first connecting member 711. This arrangement position can reduce the force on the second connecting member 712 when constraining the motor 10 and the gear box 20 in the circumferential direction, thereby increasing the service life of the second connecting member 712.

[0062] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the first connecting component 701 includes a third connecting member 713, which connects the shell 102 and the box body 201, and the third connecting member 713 is arranged at a third position, which is a position away from the first position in the first direction and close to the edge of the first end face and the edge of the second end face at the same time. The third connecting member 713 is used to constrain the relative displacement between the motor 10 and the gear box 20.

[0063] The third connecting member 713 may include a first bolt and a first bolt hole, wherein the first bolt hole penetrates the housing 201 of the gearbox 20 in a direction parallel to the gear shaft 202 and extends to a corresponding position of the housing 102 of the motor 10, and a thread is provided in the first bolt hole. By screwing the first bolt into the first bolt hole, a rigid connection between the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 can be achieved, and at the same time, the relative displacement between the motor 10 and the gearbox 20 is limited by the third connecting member 713, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection between the two. In addition, the third connecting member 713 is located at a position away from the gear shaft 202 relative to the first connecting member 711 and the second connecting member 712, so that the alignment relationship between the housing 201 of the gearbox 20 and the housing 102 of the motor 10 can be ensured, and the connection strength of the third connecting member 713 can also be improved.

[0064] In the embodiments provided in the present disclosure, Figure 1 As shown, combined Figure 3 and Figure 4 The system further includes a connecting sleeve 30, which is sleeved on the wheel axle 40 and disposed between a wheel 50 and the gearbox 20, and the connecting sleeve 30 and the gearbox 20 are connected via a second connecting assembly 702. In the present disclosure, the connecting sleeve 30 is sleeved on the wheel axle 40, and the wheel axle 40 is passed through the gearbox 20 housing 201, and one end of the connecting sleeve 30 abuts against the gearbox 20 housing 201.

[0065] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, the second connecting component 702 includes a fourth connecting member 714, and the fourth connecting member 714 includes a second inner stop and a second outer stop. The second inner stop and the second outer stop are respectively arranged at the end of the connecting sleeve 30 and the end of the box body 201. The fourth connecting member 714 is used to constrain the connecting sleeve 30 and the gear box 20 in the first direction.

[0066] The second outer stop can be set at the end where the connecting sleeve 30 abuts against the housing 201 of the gear box 20, and the second inner stop can be set at the end of the housing 201 of the gear box 20. Through the cooperation between the second inner stop and the second outer stop, it can be achieved that the connecting sleeve 30 and the gear box 20 will not make relative circular motion, thereby ensuring the fixed connection relationship between the motor 10 and the gear box 20. Of course, the setting positions of the second inner stop and the second outer stop can also be exchanged according to design requirements, and the structure and size of the fourth connecting member 714 can be the same or similar to the structure and size of the second connecting member 712.

[0067] Among them, Figure 4 As shown, the second connecting component 702 also includes a fifth connecting member 715, which includes a second bolt arranged at the end of the connecting sleeve 30 and a second bolt hole arranged at the end of the box body 201, the second bolt is adapted to the second bolt hole, and the fifth connecting member 715 is used to constrain the relative displacement between the connecting sleeve 30 and the gear box 20.

[0068] In order to further improve the reliability of the connection between the connecting sleeve 30 and the housing 201 of the gearbox 20, a flange ear flap can be provided at a circumferential position of the connecting sleeve 30 close to one end of the gearbox 20, and the flange ear flap can be attached to the surface of the housing 201 of the gearbox 20. By opening a second bolt hole at a relative position of the housing 201 of the gearbox 20, the second bolt is connected to the second bolt hole, thereby ensuring the connection strength between the connecting sleeve 30 and the gearbox 20. It should be noted that the number of second bolts provided on the flange ear flap on the connecting sleeve 30 can be adjusted and selected according to the required connection strength of the two or the structural design of the connecting sleeve 30, which will not be described in detail here.
